When Port Arthur (Texas) San Antonio Memorial High's David Whitmore pledged his verbal commitment to Nebraska back in April, he was considered a mostly unknown and untested sleeper. This summer, he has shown that he perhaps has the ability and potential to be as good as any defensive back recruit in the state of Texas this year.

In the recently concluded Texas 7-on-7 State Championships, the 6-foot-2, 190-pound Whitmore clearly stood out and drew raves for his play as a defensive back.
